EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: Morden College, Blackheath: A Haven for Retired Elderly Folk in Historic Morden College, Blackheath, England, 1695 2.. Morden College, located in the heart of Blackheath, England, is a fine historical building that holds a unique place in the annals of English history. Established in 1695 by Sir John Morden, a successful Turkey merchant, the college was built to provide shelter and support for decayed Turkey merchants who had fallen on hard times. These merchants, once prosperous, found themselves in need of assistance as they aged and were unable to continue their trade. Sir John Morden, a man of great generosity and compassion, saw the need to provide a home and care for his fellow merchants in their time of need. And so, he built Morden College, a magnificent edifice that would become a sanctuary for the elderly and retired folk of the community. The college, which still stands today, is a testament to Sir John Morden's vision and commitment to the welfare of his fellow citizens. With its grand façade and beautiful gardens, Morden College is not only a historic building but also a symbol of compassion and care for the elderly. The college continues to serve its original purpose, providing a home and care for the elderly and retired folk of the community, making it an essential part of Blackheath's rich history. Morden College's legacy is a reminder of the importance of caring for the elderly and providing them with a safe and comfortable environment in which to live out their golden years. The college's enduring presence in Blackheath is a testament to the generosity and foresight of Sir John Morden and the community that he served. This photograph, taken in the late 19th or early 20th century, captures the grandeur and elegance of Morden College, a fine building that continues to inspire awe and admiration to this day.
